The property sits in approximately 1.2 acres of ground surrounded by an abundance of wildlife, hillside and croftland, mountain scenery and takes in stunning views towards the Isle of Skye, the small isles of Eigg, Muck & Rum and on a really clear day views stretch as far as the Isle of Barra.
A large wrap around garden sweeps the perimeter of the property although there are gates to partition off a secure dog friendly area, a lovely landscape garden and access to part of the decking. Incorporated into the garden is a wildlife pond to the west side of the property.
To the front is a beech hedge that provides gated vehicular access to both ends. The front is predominantly grass with a variety of shrubs and plants. One end of the garden provides access to a large greenhouse.
There is a large shed, an outside tap and an electrical power point. Majority of the land to the west is rough grass whilst the remainder is grass or decking that is neatly kept and staged for outside dining.
The location makes for a great holiday destination and the significant grounds could easily have the potential to generate an income from glamping pods/holiday lodges. It is our understanding that up to three pods can be erected without the needs for any approvals/permissions.
